A pioneer of the movement known as Neuen Wilden [The New Wild Ones], along with George Baselitz, Jörg Immendorff, Markus Lüpertz and A.R. Penck, KH Hödicke creates neo-expressionist paintings that are not only playful but also closely associated with his time and environment. In addition to his paintings in which he explored the vast urban environment of Berlin, which underwent a rapid, post-war evolution and saw the emergence of iconic buildings and construction sites, he produced works with various techniques and mediums, such as objects, multiples, drawings and film.
Hödicke’s "Original + Fake" is a game of “spot the difference”, while "Young Socialist in the Forest", "Where Is the Painter" and "Where Is the Elephant" invite visitors “to find the figures and objects hidden in the compositions”.
